Avery is so excited to represent Thespian Troupe #69 as this year's Communications Officer! She was inducted in 2023, but has been performing since elementary school. Her debut role as “Mother #2” in a choir christmas pageant was the start of her theatre career, and she hopes to continue to perform and perfect her skills! A few of Avery's favorite shows that she has been involved in are Clue, Beauty and the Beast, and The Play That Goes Wrong. When Avery isn’t on stage, she’s probably trying to thread a needle or is modeling a fur coat as a costumes crew-head. This year will be Avery’s first year as an Unscripted captain, and she hopes to fill the year with laughs! She is ready to jump into the upcoming year with a smile!

Bella is extremely excited to serve as Chair on this years Thespian Board. She was inducted into Troupe #69 in 2022, and has loved every moment since. Everything from making new friends to creating memories that will be cherished forever. Bella has been a part of many different activities and shows at Dubuque Senior so far. Some of her favorites being Olympe in The Revolutionists, earning her the One Act Play Critics Choice Banner, and Deidre in the Play That Goes Wrong. This will be her 3rd year as a crew head on the best crew at senior, Props!! (totally not biased.) She encourages everyone to get involved either backstage or onstage because it may just change your life! Bella is ready to make this an amazing year for theatre!

Chase is beyond grateful to serve on the 2024-2025 Thespian Troupe 69 team as this years secretary! He was inducted to the Thespian Troupe in 2023, but has been a part of theatre ever since he was in elementary school. His love for theatre grew tenfold after joining Seniors theatre team and owes it all to Aaron Dean and the amazing friends he has made along the way. Some of Chases favorite shows of which he has been a part of include The Play That Goes Wrong, Beauty and the Beast, and Wizard of Oz. This year Chase served as one of the Prop Crew Heads and will also serve as a Lights Crew Head in next years theatre season. In addition, he will also serve as an Unscripted Captain and is so excited for this new journey. He knows next year will only grow his love for Theatre!

Jameson Norton in stoked to be serving as this years Thespian Board Treasurer! Jameson has been a thespian since his induction in 2023, although he has been involved since he was a lad, helping his parents and siblings out with crew and more. He has been involved with theatre since 2nd grade, with community theater shows, and school musicals since middle school. Some of his favorite shows have been Beauty and the Beast, and The Play That Goes Wrong. This will be Jameson's second year as a light crew head, and another year for him to get involved. One of Jameson's favorite memories in Dubuqe Senior Drama was the Gaston dance sequence, and speaking of which, heres to another year of theatre! Cheers!
